Our Approach & the Fujitsu Way

Across Fujitsu globally we recognise that when implemented correctly and genuinely, responsible and ethical behaviours create shared value. Responsible Business has been a substantial part of the Fujitsu Way (our corporate philosophy) since its inception, and therefore to our company DNA. It is genuine and longstanding, and our practice has been recognised and applauded externally in many benchmarks and indices

Our Framework

Fujitsu in Italy manages the IT infrastructure that keeps large and middle-sized companies running consistently and securely. Fujitsu solutions are designed to contribute substantially to the social and ‘green’ goals of most public and private organizations. Fujitsu Italy we look to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and our impact on the environment as a whole. We therefore work with LifeGate Energy, who supplies natural gas and 100% certified Zero Impact energy to over 1000 clients throughout Italy and we invest in the recovery, reuse, recycling and treatment of WEEE (The Waste Electric and Electronic Equipment).

Fujitsu Italy aims to tackle the issues that impact society and contribute positively to local communities especially with Digital Exclusion and Social Action activities. Fujitsu Italy supports selected organizations like Informatici Senza Frontiere and A.B.C. Associazione Cri du Chat on relevant aspects of digital exclusion to enable people who don’t have access to technology or are unsure how to use it to their advantage. In 2015 it started a collaboration with Fondazione Adecco, a non-profit Organization that develops projects in partnership with private and public companies to encourage the work inclusion of people with social disadvantage.
